درباره این اپیزود
In this episode of Driven by Purpose, Isaac, Evan, and Mike sit down for a conversation inspired by Evan’s experience at D23, Disney’s massive fan convention in Anaheim. After spending the weekend seeing firsthand how Disney approached accessibility and inclusion, Evan shares why the experience left such a lasting impression, especially as a parent of a child with disabilities. From wheelchair access and ASL interpretation to creating an environment where people of all abilities could fully participate, Disney demonstrates what it can look like when accessibility goes beyond compliance and becomes part of the culture.
The conversation also tackles an important question around accessibility and responsibility, including safety considerations for power wheelchair users in crowded environments. Ultimately, the episode comes back to a bigger idea: accessibility isn't just the right thing to do. It connects businesses with their communities, creates better experiences, and can be good for business.
